About the service

At our Forfar Housing Support Service, no two days are the same. We proudly support 4 adults—each with their own unique personalities, strengths and needs—across their own tenancies.

Role includes

  • Delivering a varied range of personal care
  • Supporting people through behaviours that may challenge you
  • Manual handling and Wheelchair pushing
  • Administering and supporting with medication
  • Cooking/Meal Preparation and Menu planning
  • Support with household tasks including cleaning and shopping
  • Provide support with finances
  • Support to go on holidays or short breaks
  • Writing and maintaining support plans and risk assessments

Shift pattern

Shift pattern includes a variety of earlies, lates, and waking night shifts, offering a flexible working structure. Team members work either alone or in a 2:1 arrangement, but always support just one individual to ensure person centred care. Shifts are assigned through a rota system, to maintain consistency and fairness across the team.

We're looking for people who bring

  • Great teamwork and a positive, can do attitude
  • Strong communication skills and confidence using your initiative
  • Good organisation to support daily routines
  • Ability to prioritise and manage tasks effectively
  • Willingness to learn and grow
  • Real compassion and joy in caring for others
  • Patience, understanding and empathy
